Chapter 30 Immortal Cat Hero
As he lay on his bed, Zhao Lingjun felt slightly relieved, but his gloomy mood soon returned as he remembered how empty his wallet was.
Zhao Lingjun would normally take a bus back to the apartment complex, but today he had given in to the impulse and flagged a taxi and returned by car. When it was time to pay the fare, he realised that his pay for the past two days had just vanished with the driver.
During university, he had taken an elective psychology cla.s.s because the teacher was hot.
One of his hot teacher’s lessons to alleviate depression was to lie down, close your eyes, and imagine yourself on a sunny beach and fall asleep
But when Zhao Lingjun closed his eyes, what came to mind wasn’t sand and sun, but Lin Qianxun and Wu Xiaoye.
When he thought of Lin Qianxun in her doctor’s garb, cradling the cat, Zhao Lingjun’s heart rate soared and his mouth went dry. On the other hand, when he thought of Wu Xiaoye, he felt chills all over, and desperately wanted to crawl out of bed and slap his mouth and write “I am contemporary’s Chen s.h.i.+mei”[1] a hundred times.
After the images repeated endlessly in his head, Zhao Lingjun grew increasingly miserable until he could stand it no longer, wanting to commit suicide.
Therefore, Zhao Lingjun chose to get up and pour himself a gla.s.s of ice cold water, to calm his disturbed and agitated state of mind.
However when he opened his eyes, he got the shock of his life.
Two blue eyes were centimeters away from his own, swiveling.
“What the f*ck!” Frightened, he immediately sat upright on his bed, but in his hurry he forgot and accidentally s.h.i.+fted his weight onto the b.u.t.tock that had been injected. Grimacing in pain, he took a deep breath then depressingly spoke to the white cat inches away from him, “Why did you silently get on my bed, do you want to frighten me?”
*Meow* The white cat blinked at Zhao Lingjun with an expression of being wronged and leapt off the bed.
Noticing the black on its tail as it leapt off, Zhao Lingjun once again felt pity for the abandoned cat.
Feeling sympathy for it, he proceeded to embrace the cat in a hug.
*Meow*
The white cat was surprised when Zhao Lingjun shot up from his bed, but when it was embraced, it rubbed itself happily against him.
“Hehe.” Zhao Lingjun chuckled as he was tickled by the cat burrowing into his arms. “Little guy, why are you so adorable? Those who said you would bring disaster are really lacking in foresight.
After laughing, his mood improved by leaps and bounds. As he looked into the cat’s blue eyes that were carefully observing him, he suddenly remembered an extremely important matter.
In the blink of an eye, he retrieved the gla.s.s bottle from his bag.
In the gla.s.s bottle, the three remaining blue pills were quietly sitting at the bottom.
“You’re really able to understand me?”
Zhao Lingjun eyes darted back and forth between the gla.s.s bottle and the white cat in his embrace.
As soon as he finished asking, the cat vigorously nodded a few times.
At this moment Zhao Lingjun chuckled, he found that a cat vigorously nodding was really too funny.
“It seems that these blue pills are more miraculous than v.i.a.g.r.a.” After chuckling, Zhao Lingjun thought of how people would immediately make a phone call to a mental hospital if he had told them that the pills in his hand could make a cat understand humans. Not to mention telling them that it granted the cat an overwhelming strength like Li Xiaolong.
Thinking of the cat’s display after it ate the pill, Zhao Lingjun couldn’t help but give a sweeping glance over his bedroom.
Finally, his gaze stopped on two dumbbells beside his desk.
“Since you understand me, could you help me fetch those two dumbbells?” Zhao Lingjun nodded towards the dumbbells and said to the cat in his arms.
At some point or another, a male would have fantasized about becoming as buff and muscular as Arnold Schwarzenegger. Just after Zhao Lingjun graduated, he too had once dreamed of having muscles that made cute girls drool when he took off his s.h.i.+rt.
Therefore these two dumbbells had been part of his life for a long period of time.
But he realized that dreams were merely dreams, and if dreams were easily achieved, they wouldn’t be called dreams. So, Zhao Lingjun worked out less and less with the two dumbbells.
Therefore on the surface of the dumbbells, a thick layer of dust had settled on it.
Although it had been a long time since he used them, but he could remember their weight clearly. The two dumbbells were bought in order for Zhao Lingjun to train into the muscle man of his dreams, and they each weighed 15kg.
When the white cat jumped out of his bosom, Zhao Lingjun guessed that it could at most carry a few pounds.
However, Zhao Lingjun was astonished to the point where his eyeb.a.l.l.s were almost popping out of their sockets. The small cat had only nudged the two dumbbells lightly, but miraculously, they had rolled over to his feet.
